The leadership crisis within the Peoples Democratic Party PDP deepened on Monday as security operatives sealed off both the partys National Secretariat at Wadata Plaza and the Legacy House, headquarters of the National Convention Organising Committee, shortly after Abdulrahman Mohammed assumed office as Acting National Chairman.
Heavily armed officers arrived at the Wadata Plaza headquarters in the early hours, ordering staff and journalists to vacate before locking the gates and taking up positions around the complex.
